”Midway Gamer's Day '08: This Is Vegas
What more appropriate setting to see the premier of Midway's This Is Vegas than Vegas itself? True, were a fifty dollar cab ride from the strip, but we got to see it virtually in the game so I suppose that's something. This Is Vegas is a balls out parody done in the tongue in cheek GTA/Bully style. Your character can explore all the parties, gambling, driving and fighting that Vegas has to offer. On display for the Gamer's Day were the fighting, partying and gambling mechanics which we checked out poolside in true Vegas style.
The fighting mechanic was pretty basic and what you would expect from this type of open world, mission based game. You can fight everyone form the local yokels and thugs to the mascots of the various casinos. I got particular pleasure out of beating the crap out of one mascot who looked suspiciously like my arch nemesis, The Burger King. By pressing X to attack, you can build up your BuzzBomb meter which, once it's filled, will give you an special move that will send your enemy flying through the air. Beating enemies down yields casino chips that can be used later to buy more clothes, cars and other goodies.

Wii Boogie Details
They said they were going to do it, and now here they come. EA is catching up to the Wii train by announcing Wii Boogie with an ambiguous launch date of "by the end of 2007". Some of you might remember it being mentioned before by McMike as Wii exclusive from EA, but like so many others, I want to know more about the "boogie" part of the game and how crazy it's going to be. Are we talking Studio 54 crazy or crazy rave dancing in a country field? More »
